Sure. No need to hurry.

Before I made that patch, I often had to press P twice quickly
(unpause, pause) to keep the pingus under control, and was
frustrated when I wasn't quick enough. It might be considered
a cheat. Depends on whether the game is designed to include
real-time excitement. With single-stepping, it becomes more
like a round-based abstract puzzle, like Sokoban.
